What future for Palestinians and Israelis?

Views from the Palestinian and Israeli civil societies

EN: After decades of a tangled peace process between Palestinians and Israel, politicians have not been successful achieving its goals. Since a long time, the Palestinian and Israeli civil societies have decided to take their fate into their own hands. What are they doing? What are they facing? How do they organise? What is working, what is not? How do they imagine the day after the conflict? How can we help them, here in Europe? On those topics, we will listen to nine highly dedicated Palestinians and Israelis who all share the belief that humans are equal, and every human being is entitled to the same human rights. We will discuss with them, they will discuss together. Music and poetry will be part of the dialogue.

Jean Asselborn, Luxembourg Minister of Foreign Affairs
